Powered by GoogleIsolation can be God's answer and timing for our busy lives. But I don't want to drive neither to nor from the camp at night.
This camp is wonderful! I've been here 3 times for women's retreats. The rooms are always clean, bed's comfortable with Tempurpedic mattresses, and meeting rooms are spacious. In addition, the food is always excellent. No typical camp food here! The staff are so professional and accommodating and easy to work within. Iwould highly recommend this camp
This is my first summer camp. The staff are all super supportive and I know my problems would be fixed before I uttered the word! The food is better than some if the other camps I have been to and will accommodate to dietary needs such as picky children and vegetarians. Butman has definitely furthered my Christian faith and all in all one of the best places on earth.
One of the best places to visit. I enjoy the friendly staff, great food, awesome cabins, and the different things you can do over there also. My youth kids love going there for camp every year.
This camp is great. We have helped set up some of the geocaches, painted cabins, and set up Christmas lights. They have always been accommodating by having great hospitality, awesome food, and having fun while getting things done around the camp. I would recommend this place for work and for pleasure.
